Can anyone help me to find logged in username in yii application?

Take a look at the guide topic related to the user authentication (http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/topics.auth). In a nutshell there are two approaches:

  1. You have the ID of the currently authenticated user (Yii::app()->user->id), so the only thing you should do is to retrieve user name by known ID from the database (e.g. User::model()->findByPk(Yii::app()->user->id))).

  2. Use the CBaseUserIdentity::setState() method to save the data unique for the current user.

in fact there is also


Yii::app()->user->name

which should contain user name, but what it really contain depends on what was passed in during authentication.
